Hi -

I am looking for a Wrasse that meets the following criteria:

1) Hardy / good shipper
2) peaceful
3) pest control for coral

From what I read here, a Carptener meets #1 and #2. How about pests? Any other alternatives?

yellow wrasse (formerly advertised and sold as yellow coris wrasse) meets all of those requirements. they’re good workers with a splash of color.

Just a heads up tho they come with the same occasionally eat inverts warning of the melanarus wrasse (though I've hears anecdotally they are slightly less likely)
 

How much do you care about having a display FREE of wires, pumps and equipment?
